Zinc nearly doubles testosterone.

Just 25 mg as zinc acetate:

➞ Raises T

➞ Doubles sperm count

➞ Lowers gonadotropins (LH, FSH)

Zinc increases expression of steroid creating enzymes, and ups antioxidant defenses (which ruin steroid production).

Note to self: the study seems to be in hemodialysis patients?
